Aether
Official Learning Center

Aether Academy

The official learning center for Aether Social. Learn how to build your presence, control your personal network, share your experiences, and discover professional opportunities on your terms.

Welcome to Aether Social

One person. More than one story.

Who you are at work is part of your story. Who you are outside of work matters just as much. Aether Social was created to make space for both—without asking you to fit your entire life into a single kind of profile or conversation.

This Academy is your guide to the experience: how profiles work, how to share, how to control access to your personal side and messages, and how jobs and advertising create new opportunities.

Getting StartedOfficial Guide

Welcome to Aether Social

Aether Social was built around a simple belief: people are more than a job title, a résumé, or a collection of posts. We build careers, friendships, communities, and relationships at the same time. Social gives those different parts of life room to exist without asking you to choose just one.

Your Space to Connect

  • Create your account and sign in.
  • Set up your professional and personal profiles.
  • Explore both feeds and decide what you want to share.
  • Find people, build connections, and start conversations.

Aether Social is a place to show up as yourself—professionally, personally, or both.

02

What Is Aether Social?

Aether Social is a social networking experience built for both professional and personal connection. Rather than reducing a person to a single public identity, it provides distinct spaces for the different ways people interact.

Two Sides. One Person.

  • Professional: share career interests, experience, ideas, and professional updates.
  • Personal: share interests, moments, music, and the things that make life yours.
  • You control access to your personal network and who can contact you through direct messages.

You should not have to leave part of yourself behind to belong.

03

Design Philosophy

Technology can connect people, but it can also make genuine connection feel complicated. Aether Social approaches the problem by keeping the experience familiar, direct, and centered on the individual.

Built Around People

  • Give professional and personal expression their own context.
  • Make sharing and conversation approachable.
  • Keep profiles useful without turning people into data points.
  • Let users decide what they share and how they present themselves.

The platform exists to support relationships—not to define them.

04
Getting StartedOfficial Guide

Getting Started

Your first steps in Aether Social are about creating a presence that feels like you. You can begin simply and build out your profiles over time.

Your First Five Minutes

  • Sign in or create an account.
  • Open Profile and choose Professional or Personal.
  • Add the details you want others to know.
  • Visit the matching feed and create a post.
  • Explore Network and DMs to connect with people.

There is no single correct way to use Aether Social. Start with the side of life that matters to you today.

05
ProfilesOfficial Guide

Professional & Personal Profiles

Aether Social separates professional and personal profile information so each side can tell a coherent story. Switch between the two views to see how you appear in different contexts.

Your Identity, Your Context

  • Professional profiles can highlight experience, education, and professional background.
  • Personal profiles can highlight your interests, personality, and personal bio.
  • Profile editing lets you update information as your life changes.

A person can be ambitious at work and entirely themselves after hours. Both deserve space.

06
ProfilesOfficial Guide

Editing Your Profile

Profiles are meant to evolve. Update your details as your experience, interests, and priorities change. The Edit Profile action is the starting point for keeping your presence current.

Make It Yours

  • Choose the Professional or Personal profile view.
  • Select Edit Profile.
  • Update the available details and save your changes.
  • Return to your profile to review how it appears.

Your profile should reflect who you are now—not who you were when you signed up.

08
ProfilesOfficial Guide

My Jam

Music says something about us that a biography sometimes cannot. My Jam gives you a way to put a song alongside your personal profile and share a little more of your personality.

Let the Music Speak

  • Choose a song using the available music experience.
  • Display the selection in the My Jam area of your personal profile.
  • Use the music control where supported to listen.

Sometimes one song tells a better story than a hundred words.

09
SharingOfficial Guide

Professional & Personal Feeds

The feed is where sharing begins. Aether Social provides separate Professional and Personal views so posts appear in a context that matches the conversation.

Choose the Right Space

  • Switch between Professional and Personal.
  • Read posts in the selected feed.
  • Use the composer to share something with that audience and context.

A career insight and a weekend memory can both matter without needing to live in the same feed.

10
SharingOfficial Guide

Creating Posts

A post can be a thought, an update, a question, or a moment worth sharing. The composer supports written posts and image attachments, making it easy to contribute to either feed.

Share Something Meaningful

  • Open the feed where you want to post.
  • Write your message in the composer.
  • Optionally select an image.
  • Review your post and publish it.

The best conversations often begin with something simple and genuine.

11
SharingOfficial Guide

Sharing Photos

Photos add context to the moments and ideas you share. Aether Social supports image posts so you can communicate visually as well as in words.

A Picture Adds Perspective

  • Choose Add image while composing a post.
  • Select a supported photo from your device.
  • Add a caption or accompanying text if you wish.
  • Publish to the selected feed.

Image availability and supported formats can vary by device and app version.

12
SharingOfficial Guide

Likes & Comments

A feed becomes a community when people respond. Likes and comments make it possible to acknowledge a post, contribute a perspective, or continue a discussion.

More Than Scrolling

  • Like a post to show appreciation.
  • Open comments to read the discussion.
  • Add a comment to contribute to the conversation.

The point is not simply to be seen. It is to connect.

13
RelationshipsOfficial Guide

Your Network

The Network area is a place to discover and maintain connections. Aether Social is designed to make the relationships behind the profiles just as important as the profiles themselves.

Connection Is the Foundation

  • Open the Network tab.
  • Explore people and available connection actions.
  • Visit a profile to learn more about someone.
  • Manage who you welcome into your personal network, separately from your professional presence.

A network is not just a number. It is a collection of real people.

19
RelationshipsOfficial Guide

Control Your Personal Network

Your professional presence can help you meet people, but it does not mean every professional contact belongs in your personal world. Aether Social gives you control over who can access your personal side.

Professional Reach. Personal Choice.

  • Build professional relationships without automatically granting access to your personal profile and network.
  • Use the available personal-network controls to decide who can see your personal side.
  • Review connection requests and access choices as relationships change.
  • Remember that choosing a Personal feed or profile is different from granting someone access to it.

Connection should be an invitation, not an obligation.

14
RelationshipsOfficial Guide

Direct Messages

Not every conversation belongs in a public feed. Direct Messages provide a space for one-to-one conversations, with controls over who can reach you.

Take the Conversation Further

  • Open the DMs tab.
  • Choose an available conversation or begin one through the supported flow.
  • Send a message and continue the discussion privately.

Some of the most meaningful connections happen after the public conversation ends.

20
RelationshipsOfficial Guide

Who Can Message You

Being discoverable should not mean being available to everyone at every moment. Aether Social lets you control who is able to contact you through Direct Messages.

Conversations on Your Terms

  • Review the messaging permissions available to your account.
  • Choose who is allowed to initiate direct conversations with you.
  • Adjust those permissions when your preferences or network change.
  • Use the DMs area for conversations with people permitted by your settings.

Your inbox is part of your space. You decide who gets to knock.

15
RelationshipsOfficial Guide

Building Community

Aether Social is meant to make room for more than broadcasting updates. Sharing, responding, discovering people, and having direct conversations work together to help relationships grow.

Show Up. Reach Out. Stay Connected.

  • Share something that matters to you.
  • Engage thoughtfully with someone else’s post.
  • Connect with people whose ideas or interests resonate.
  • Continue the conversation when it makes sense.

A community is built through participation, not just presence.

21
OpportunitiesOfficial Guide

Jobs on Aether Social

Aether Social connects professional identity with professional opportunity. The Jobs board gives employers a place to publish openings and gives members a way to discover opportunities alongside the professional community they are building.

A Place for the Next Opportunity

  • Explore available openings through the Aether Social Jobs experience.
  • Use your professional profile to tell the story of your experience and interests.
  • Employers can publish opportunities through an organization employer workspace.
  • Job postings and promoted opportunities are distinct from ordinary personal posts.

A meaningful connection can start a conversation—or open the door to a career.

22
OpportunitiesOfficial Guide

Employer Posting Plans

Organizations can use Aether Social to reach people who are already building professional connections. Employer access is offered through two monthly plans with clear differences in how job openings are presented.

Needle & Haystack

  • Needle — $100/month: unlimited job postings on the Aether Social Jobs board.

Advertising on Aether Social

Aether Social also offers paid visibility for organizations that want to introduce their work, services, or brand to the community. Advertising is separate from ordinary member posting and employer job plans.

Simple Placements. Clear Pricing.

  • Banner Ads — $1,000/month: prominent banner advertising placement within Aether Social.
  • Feed Sidebar Ads — $500/month: advertising alongside the Aether Social feed.
  • Feed Sidebar Ads are included with Aether Business Enterprise or Aether Political Tier 3.
  • Advertising inquiries and placement availability are handled through Team Aether’s advertising page.

Make your presence known with an offering that fits your organization.

Platform ResourcesOfficial Guide

Privacy & Personal Choice

Professional and personal contexts help you present different sides of your identity. Your personal side is not automatically an open invitation: you have a say in who can see it and who can send you direct messages. Review your choices as your network grows.

Share Intentionally

  • Review your profile details before saving.
  • Think about the audience and context of each post.
  • Avoid posting sensitive personal information you would not want others to see.
  • Use the published privacy policy for the platform’s formal data practices.

Your professional visibility and your personal boundaries do not have to be the same.

17
Platform ResourcesOfficial Guide

Help & Feedback

Aether Social will continue to evolve. Questions, feedback, and reports of unexpected behavior help Team Aether understand what needs attention and what could work better.

Help Shape What Comes Next

  • Describe what you were trying to do.
  • Explain what happened and what you expected.
  • Include your device and app version when reporting a technical issue.
  • Contact Team Aether at team@aetheros.pro.

The people using Aether Social are an important part of its future.
